Okay so I’m taking this paper next week so does anyone have any predictions on what might come out and does anyone have tips and tricks for this paper so it goes smoothly and I don’t mess up?

in the question that said what happens in the flask in apparatus B i wrote sulfuric acid reacts with sodium bromide to produce HBR in and acid base reaction. Any hbr produced is condensed back in the flask where a substitution reaction occurs between Hbr and the a producing the halgenoalakane will i get marks?

info@cambridgeinternational.org Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to formally report that the 9701/22 may june 2026 examination paper appears to have been le a ked prior to the exam, in a situation very similar to the earlier 9709/52 and 9709/12 paper incident.

Given the seriousness of this breach and the precedent set by the previous case, I believe the integrity and fairness of the examination have been compromised. Therefore, I respectfully request that the 9701/22 may june 2026 paper be cancelled or rescheduled or any other appropriate action must be taken to ensure all candidates are assessed fairly.

Okay, I have really bad anxiety and I completely tanked P2. It was so easy, but I blanked out. I checked, and in the worst case I got like 23. Can I still get a B? I just need a B. If I don’t mess up the other two, I should be fine. I still have P3 and P1, and I have a lot of time to practice. Currently I’m getting around 30 in P3 and about 27 in P1. Could I still get it? ( please don’t be mean :p)

I gave the exam today it was quite hard, all of you who say it was easy, good for you. But the exam was bloody messed up the ionic equation got me I got that wrong Idk I wrote all the answers but I am not quite certain if they were correct. I got the color changes right and the shape of the molecule I got that right as well, I got a bunch of others correct as well. You could say I didn't study as much as the exam demanded and you won't be wrong in all honesty. P22 was definitely leaked I saw it before going to the exam here on reddit and discord. I saw the first question of P21 on reddit as well. They guy selling the paper asked for 40$ which I would have paid if I was sure it were true. I didn't pay and went to give the exam. I wish I had paid him I wish I would have got the paper before the exam but nonetheless it is what it is. I hope they cancel the paper and give us a retake because it was leaked. Not because its just but because it suits my situation. Yes I am selfish so you could fuck off. If you could get good grades this time, you could do that again. A few people who like me didn't study, if they get some extra time to study it may or may not hurt you, if it does once again you can fuck off. Everyone wants their situation improved.

Edit:
Cambridge did not announce a retake for CS which was also leaked. I doubt they will for chemistry. We should plan and do something about this.

Okay so in analytical chemistry question, where they asked us to identify the structural formulae contributing to the peaks I wrote the structural formulae but didn’t put a positive sign next to them, am I gonna lose marks?

1. We have not seen energetics last year so i expect it

2. I think SN1 mechanism will come this year. either that or electrophilic addition

3. In phys chem i think group 2 might come

4. Considering FM, i would expect a titration curve and calculation

5. Enthalpy change of combustion may come

6. I think Alcohol —> Halogenoalkane reaction may come with PCl5; PCl3 or SOCl2

7. We may have to graph ionisation energies or atomic radius or smth this year

2017-2022 I’ve got As/A*s in all papers. Very broad range of As (low to high) and my A*s have been literally on the grade boundary. But in the 2025 paper for example I’ve got a B (totalled across all papers) and was 8 marks off an A. Idk what it is but I just don’t know how to improve any more. I’ve done about 100 pmt exam question sets, all the past papers possible, revised that stupid synthesis map 1000 times. I feel like all my marks now are just absolutely ridiculous losses. I’m bad at paper 3 too, how tf do I revise for practical skills. any advice would be so so so appreciated please I’m desperate for an A 🙏

aqa btw!!!

Have not been studying the whole year and just getting by on mocks and assessments, now it's the final day and I'm lost.

Should i be drawing the organic flowchart until i memorise it and periodicity colours and reactions, or just do straight past papers.

What are everyone’s thoughts on 9701/22 today?

guys does anyone know the predicted topics or frequently asked topics for chem?

How cooked are u guys

Does anyone have FAQ’s

Faqs
Could anyone help me and give faqs for chem 21
